This page is new and still under construction, but we hope to
become your number one source for information in computer vision.
Please keep checking back for new material.


<P> 
Computer vision research at the 
<!WA1><A HREF="http://www.uiowa.edu">
University of Iowa </a>
<!WA2><A HREF="http://www.cs.uiowa.edu/">
Computer Science Department</a>
is primarily carried out by 
<!WA3><a href="http://www.cs.uiowa.edu/~mfleck/vision-html/people.html">Margaret Fleck and her students</a>.
Our laboratory, which we share with the simulation group and
occasional course projects, contains
two PUMA robot arms, seven cameras (five color), and all sorts of
interesting equipment for computer vision experimentation.  
The lab is
quite crowded but we can make it seem spacious in this picture using

<!WA22><a href="http://www.cs.uiowa.edu/~mfleck/index.html"> Margaret Fleck</a> 
is the main faculty member running the vision group and is
the best person to contact for additional information
about the lab or our research projects.
<!WA23><a href="http://www.cs.uiowa.edu/~des/index.html"> Dan Stevenson</a> 
knows almost as much about what we're doing, 
but he's harder to reach by phone because
he's not a faculty member and doesn't have a snazzy private office.
We jointly maintain our software system and these web pages.
The easiest way to reach either of us is by email.
